Abstract

The bistatic RCS of perfectly conducting cylindrical objects (circular, elliptical, ogival and airfoil-like) is calculated by the well-known computer code NEC-2 based on the Integral-Equation-Method (IEM) and by a new code called BISTRO which has been developed at DLR and is based on the Physical Optics (PO). For validation of the theoretical results the bistatic RCS were measured at an indoor range using a frequency of 94 GHz.
